I recently visited San Diego and I fell in love with the city. It feels like it has everything positive about California without all the problems of LA and SF.
I am seriously considering moving there. Is anyone working in finance there? How is the scene? Are there good opportunities or is it limiting?

Finance is very small in the SD and there isn’t much room for growth (there isn’t really a finance community here). If you don’t want to significantly limit your career you kind of have to do LA as the next closest. I think there is room to have a successful career in finance down in SD but you should probably start your career elsewhere and make the move when you’re more senior due to lack of IB/PE presence
